What you need, colleague Rajesh, is the VFP's TRANSFORM() function.Unfortunately, it was not yet introduced in VFP6.However, there are ways to truncate the trailing zeros (this is what you are asking for, as I understand).

Let me ask you this: do you always need 3 decimal digits in that resulting string? If so - Martin Krivka has already answered your question; if not - could you be more specific?
